These are some photos from Monday?s Academy Awards luncheon. Can I just say something? God bless Natalie Portman?s bitchface. I?m being completely sincere. If she?s not holding a trophy, Natalie looks totally and completely over it. Yes, I know, she?s probably uncomfortable and she probably wants to get out of those shoes and she probably wants to just sit on the couch eating vegan bacon (Is that a thing? It should be.). I know Natalie has a very good reason to be wearing a bitchface for months on end - she?s creating the creation. I get it. But I still love that she?s so bad an actress that she can?t even grin and bear it with good humor for the cameras. The camera always catches her bitchface, whether it is the ?natural bitchface? (as many of us have as our default expression), or whether it is true discomfort and true bitchiness. Anyway, the dress is Lanvin. I think it?s really pretty - the color compliments her bitchface beautifully.
Also - maybe Natalie is upset that her fiance Benjamin Millepied came across like an unprofessional famewhore (emphasis on the whore) in a New York Times profile a few days ago. Yet another reason to wear this season?s must have accessory: the bitchface.
Oh, and here?s Nicole Kidman, wearing Yves Saint Laurent drapes, I think. No, the dress is YSL, a label that is an old favorite of Nicole?s. Nicole put on her game face and she looks much happier to be at the luncheon than Natalie. I hate the faux-halter cut of the top of the dress, but I actually love this color and print on Nicole. It makes her look younger - the holy grail for Nicole.

Keeping up on her physical fitness throughout her pregnancy, Natalie Portman was spotted taking a hike at Beachwood Canyon in Los Angeles, CA on Friday (February 4).
The ?Black Swan? babe showed off her growing baby bump as she walked along with some friends, water in hand.
In other news, Portman has yet another film hitting theaters today. It?s called ?The Other Woman? and was actually completed back in 2009.
A movie that could have very easily gone straight to DVD, "The Other Woman" drew attention because of Natalie?s celebrity status, and therefore is now being released as usual.

She?s always willing to lend her helping hand, and Natalie Portman is contributing to the organization of the next ?Free the Children? project.
The launch of the group's new ?Power of a Girl? initiative will focus on raising awareness and funds for the schooling of young women in developing nations.
The ?Black Swan? star released a statement, saying, "With women comprising 70 percent of the world's poor, investing in the education of girls is one of the best ways to end the cycle of poverty.?
In a video announcement, the actress explains a new contest she's created that encourages people between the ages of 13 to 21 in North America and the U.K. to sign up at freethechildren.com/girls and raise money for Kisaruni, Free the Children's new all-girls' secondary school in rural Kenya.

Natalie Portman greatly improved from the Globes. There were no cutesy red rose appliqus, no “conceiving to conception”. I loved her cream gown, I loved the way it fit her bump, and I LOVED her hair. She was one of my best dressed of the night.
I LOVED Sofia Vergara?s dress and styling. She looked great, she looked sexy, and she looked completely va-va-voom. The boobs were out, the color looked great on her, and her hair and makeup were very sexy. Basically, I want to marry her.
Since I have so much affection for Mariska Hargitay, that might be coloring my view of this dress. It?s really kind of a prom dress, right? Or a wedding dress dyed purple. But Mariska usually does a lot, so I like that she kept her styling really simple.
I don?t like the orange-red of Tina Fey?s dress, and with her coloring, it really should have been a blue-red. But she?s Tina, and she?s awesome, and haven?t we seen her look so much worse? So give her a round of applause for pulling it together.
It?s Helena Bonham Carter. What do you expect me to do, put her on the Worst Dressed list?
Love Julianna Margilies? vintage YSL. Love the color on her. Love her cute husband. Hate the ponytail, but I can live with it.
This in controversial - I?m putting Lea Michele on the Best Dressed list. But she deserves it! She isn?t wearing a prom dress, and she doesn?t look like a bottle of Pepto-Bismal barfed on her. The dress is flattering to her body, the cream looks great with her coloring, and we need to applaud Lea when she gets it right.
Another controversial choice - Mila Kunis in Alexander McQueen. I didn?t like this when I first saw it, but it?s gown on me. I liked the way it moved, and the fabric is very special and unusual.
I like the way Melissa Leo dresses. She dresses like an over-40 actress who takes her craft seriously, but enjoys the chance, at long last, to get dressed up. She?s age-appropriate, occasion-appropriate and very, very pretty.
Claire Danes Not really one of my personal best dressed, just because I hated her makeup job. But the dress was unusual, and I enjoyed seeing her try something different.

Miss Portman edged out fellow nominees Annette Bening, Nicole Kidman, Jennifer Lawrence and Hilary Swank to claim the accolade.
Clearly elated, Natalie thanked numerous people during her acceptance speech, saying, "To all of the actresses in this category and the performances this year in general, I'm so humbled to be nominated. I've been working since I was 11 years old and SAG has taken care of me. They made sure that I wasn't working to long and made sure I got my education while I was working and I'm so grateful to have this union protecting me every day."
She also thanked her fiance, Benjamin Millepied, saying "I love you very much."

| | Natalie Portman: Romantic comedy clichés 'offend me' | | Added 13 years ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

Natalie Portman is still talking. Bless her heart. Little Miss Privacy is campaigning for an Oscar, and we will hear the gushy clichs about her bump and her glow and how she?s ?fat? and happy from now until the Oscars. After that, hopefully Natalie and her Ballet K-Fed will simmer down. That?s Natalie?s plan - she tells People Magazine: ?I hope I?ll get to lie in bed and eat popcorn and watch TV for the rest of [my pregnancy]. Not always be out in public looking like a whale, but it?s all nice energy that everyone is showing.? Not that Natalie regrets stepping out in her condition and having everyone fawn over her: ?I feel happy and I think when you?re happy you?re always glowing.?
Not only is campaigning for that Oscar, she?s also promoting that horrible-looking romantic comedy No Strings Attached, with Ashton Kutcher. But don?t call it a romantic comedy! You see, in the film, Natalie plays a doctor, not a fashion girl. And there?s no makeover. Thus, this romantic comedy is different! Because if romantic comedy characters like clothes and need a makeover, that ?offends? Natalie?s delicate sensibilities.
Aside from being engaged and pregnant, Natalie Portman is trying something else new this year, by starring in a romantic comedy. Natalie has taken on the challenge of starring in the romantic comedy No Strings Attached with Ashton Kutcher because it finally fit her type of chick-flick.
?I?ve always wanted to do one,? Natalie tells Entertainment Weekly. ?But the girls are always in fashion, and it?s always about their clothes. They always want to get married at the end. There?s some kind of makeover scene. That stuff offends me.?
But No Strings Attached left that ?stuff? out.
?[Screenwriter] Liz Meriwether writes women so specifically and smartly,? the Black Swan star says of the film. ?My character is a woman who?s working, who?s trying to create her own construct for relationships, who?s funny herself ? and isn?t just the girlfriend of a funny guy.?
And Natalie is working on making some romantic comedy-type films of her own through her production company, Handsomecharlie Films.
?Natalie wants to build something that?s different from your usual production company,? Annette Savitch, her producing partner, says. ?We want to do movies that are female driven, from a fresher perspective. So if it?s a comedy, it?s not just about women out to find husbands. I think that?s really lacking today.?
They?re currently working on Best Buds, a ?stoner roadtrip comedy,? and BYO, a ?female Superbad.?
What do you think of Natalie?s romantic comedy opinion? Are you offended by them or is that ?stuff? she hates the part you love?
[From OK! Magazine]
No, Natalie has a point, she honestly does. There is a lot of stuff in these interchangeable rom-coms that I find offensive. And yes, Natalie has every right to point out that all women, and all romantic heroines in film, don?t need to ring and don?t have to give a crap about fashion. But is Natalie the right person to get on her high horse about this? You know what offends me? One of the best actresses of her generation, a Harvard-educated beauty, who says crap like, ?Thank you to Benjamin, who is helping me continue this creation of creating more life. Benjamin choreographed the film, and also you might remember him in the movie as the guy when they ask, ‘Would you sleep with that girl?’ And he’s like, ‘Pffsh, no.’ He’s the best actor. It’s not true: He totally wants to sleep with me!” So much of that offends me. Of course, I?m also offended that Natalie is shilling her rom-com by pretending she?s selling anything other than her engagement and her bump - looks like that is what ALL girls want, isn?t it, Natalie?
Also, rose-boobs offend me too. Just a personal quirk of mine.
